Welcoming a newborn into your family is one of the most magical moments in life, and capturing those early days with stunning, professionally curated portraits is an experience you’ll treasure forever. At Rachel Gregory Photography, we specialize in luxury newborn photography, offering a full-service, stress-free experience that includes everything from custom styling and expert posing to high-end retouching and heirloom-quality artwork.
If you’re new to the world of newborn photography, here are a few things we want you to know before your session!
No two babies are exactly alike, and that’s why we take a customized approach to every session. Some babies love being swaddled and curled up, while others prefer stretching out. Some snooze the entire session, while others stay wide-eyed and curious. We never force a baby into a pose that isn’t natural for them—instead, we gently guide them into comfortable, safe positions that result in stunning, timeless portraits.
We know you’ve probably been pinning adorable newborn photo ideas for months, and we love working with inspiration! However, it’s important to remember that every baby is different, and some poses or setups might not work for your little one.
That’s why we offer a personalized pre-session consultation, where we’ll discuss your vision, color preferences, and styling choices. Our studio is stocked with luxury props, hand-selected wraps, and couture newborn outfits, so we can tailor the session to match your aesthetic while ensuring your baby’s comfort.
Newborns have zero concept of schedules or messes, and that’s completely normal! Whether your baby needs to pause for feeding, has a fussy moment, or has an accident on one of our blankets (yes, it happens!), don’t stress. We’ve handled it all and keep our studio stocked with extra wraps, wipes, and everything needed for a smooth, relaxed session.
Our number one priority is creating a calm, peaceful environment so you and your baby feel completely at ease.
As a new parent, you’ve likely been running on little sleep, and we want your newborn session to feel like a break, not another task. Once you arrive at our studio, we’ll take care of every single detail—from soothing and posing your baby to adjusting lighting for the perfect shot.
Many parents use this time to unwind, sip coffee, and even sneak in a quick nap on our cozy studio couch. We’ll gently guide you when it’s time for parent or sibling portraits, but otherwise, consider this your chance to just breathe and take in this special moment.
If your baby starts fussing, don’t worry! Our expertise goes beyond photography—we are also baby whisperers. We have a tried-and-true set of soothing techniques, from gentle rocking and white noise to warm swaddles that help lull your little one into a peaceful sleep.
While we encourage parents to relax, we always let you know if your baby needs extra feeding or comfort from you. It’s all about creating a smooth, relaxed session while capturing the sweetest newborn moments.
We pour our hearts into creating beautiful portraits for you, and we love seeing them shared! Feel free to post your newborn photos on social media, send them to friends and family, and showcase your baby’s first professional portraits with pride.
When you share, we appreciate it when you tag Rachel Gregory Photography, so other families looking for a luxury newborn experience can find us, too!
Your experience doesn’t end the moment we snap the last photo. After your session, we carefully hand-edit each image to ensure flawless, artistic-quality newborn portraits.
We then help you select gorgeous, high-end print products such as heirloom albums, framed wall art, and museum-quality canvas prints—because your baby’s first portraits deserve to be displayed beautifully.
At Rachel Gregory Photography, we are dedicated to providing a seamless, stress-free newborn photography experience for families who value high-end, timeless portraits.
Our newborn sessions book quickly, so we encourage you to reserve your date during your second or third trimester.
✨ Let’s capture your baby’s first days with elegance and care.
